The Golden Throne

He reappeared along the tents that he had passed a few minutes ago. Heaving a sigh of relief, he turned around to walk a different path, when all of a sudden he stopped.

Turning back around he spoke in a sombre voice. "Who are you? Someone of your calibre shouldn't be in the recruit camps."

"I can say the same thing about you.", a sweet voice came from the other side. It was a woman. She was fair skinned and had sky blue eyes. Her blonde hair rippled like the wind and she donned a green dress that made her look surreal.

Liu Feng was immediately taken aback by her sheer beauty, but he shook himself.

"Amelia is much more beautiful Liu Feng.. Do not get shaken so easily.", he reminded himself.

"Who are you? You are a human, yet you are clearly powerful enough to escape from the girl's tents in an instant. What were your intentions?", the elf asked.

"Me? I am a humble commoner, Sherlock, my lady. I was just wandering around, looking for where I needed to go. This place is like a labyrinth, and no one instructed me telling me where to go. Please forgive me for that. I will be taking my leave.", Liu Feng bowed a little and was about to turn around to leave.

Then, a gust of wind rushed against him stopping him.

"Why must you make this so difficult?", he clenched his teeth and looked at her.

"Because I am concerned about me and my fellow sisters' safety. Who knows what perverted thoughts you had to come to our tents? Who is to say that if I wasn't there, you would have done something to take advantage of them?", she said righteously.

"Well, do not worry. That is simply not the case. I am simply a recruit. A commoner if you will. I am nothing in your eyes. A speck of dust that I hope you will leave be.", Liu Feng said.

"A commoner? Which commoner has access to magic? Do not fool me you liar.", she gnashed her teeth.

"Well, isn't that offending? Who is to say that magic is supposed to be limited to the nobles of the world? Who is to say that commoners cannot learn this sacred art? Do not tell me! You are one of those people who persecute the commoners who dare learn magic. Save me!", Liu Feng shouted.

"Shut up. Nothing like that.", she looked away.

"Well, then. I am sure that you have no reason to attack me. I hope that you can leave it here before it goes too far.", Liu Feng smiled.

"Do not worry. Whoever you are, you will get it if I find out that you even had the slightest intentions of doing something wrong.", she said coldly. She turned around to leave, but Liu Feng called her out once.

"You are leaving like that, but isn't it unfair? I have already given my name, yet you withheld yours.", he said.

She paused for a moment and bit her lips.

"Escta.", she said and jumped. A green glow appeared under her feet and she was propelled forward in a high speed. Soon enough, she was nowhere to be seen.

"Wow. I did not know that there was something like that near me. I should have sensed it. I am getting rusty. But, who the hell was that? Escta? Is she like Amelia's sister or something? She also had those shadow guards around her.", Liu Feng pondered as he walked towards the direction that he would have if not for the interruption.

---------------------------------------------------------------

Near the girls tents

Escta reappeared near the tents. She paused for a moment and then barked out. "Tail him. He is very suspicious. I could not see through him, and my intuition tells me that he is someone very dangerous."

"Yes Your Highness.", a voice came from seemingly nowhere.

"Do not."

Escta trembled.

"Wait!", she hastily shouted.

"Yes, Your Highness?", the same voice from before called out.

"Forget it. Let us leave it at this.", she said as she twirled her hair to the other side. "I am feeling magnanimous today." 

She walked away, but her trembling hands gave away her came facade.

"Who is that man? Kasja never spoke to me for years, but now he tells me specifically not to chase after this man? How did he force such a response? I must look into this myself later.", she thought to herself.

"Do what you want to, but remember, do not offend him."

"Kasja!", Escta remarked. "Who is this person? Why can I not offend him?"

"Because he is someone very important. That is all. I am too lazy to speak anymore.". 

Silence ensued, and the only thing that was audible was the rustling of the tent cloths. Escta gnashed her teeth. "I will find out who that person really is.", she resolved.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

"Achoo!", Liu Feng suddenly sneezed. "Ah! Just when I thought that I wasn't being talked about too much behind my back, someone goes and curses me."

Liu Feng was strolling when he came to this huge gathering of people. He could not hear a peep from them, and it was surprising considering that it was filled with students.

"All right, this is also clearly the wrong place. Better leave before someone recognizes me.", he thought to himself, and in a blink of an eye, he disappeared.

"This is getting ridiculous. I am getting bored.", he sighed and a green light appeared below his feet. He bent down and jumped. He jumped alright. He was high in the air, and could see the part of the city. Seeing another gathering of people in the training grounds, he came down.

"They could have just told us that we had to go to the training grounds. I would be spared from all this useless hassle.", he sighed as he rushed to where he needed to go.
